Day 23

I can't go too long without posting a picture of my Sallie-girl!

So stoic.

Day 22: Another Cool Tree

Day 21

Day 20: Trees and a Ravine

I like the subtle sense of a snow-filled ravine in these pictures

(especially the second one).

Day 19: Bench

I don't know what it is about this picture, but I really like it.

Is it the lines? Is it the shadows?

Is there something quiet and peaceful about an empty park bench?

Day 18: Gnarly Tree

Day 17: Ice, Snow, Water

I like the contrast in these photos of the ice, snow, and water.

Bridges and trees are always fun, too.

Day 16: Down by the River

Today, Sallie and I took a little walk along the river.

I snapped a few pictures that I think will be fun.

I'll spread them out over the next several days.

Day 15: Hockey

Winter means hockey for many in Minnesota...including my sister!

I only made it to one of her games this entire season.

Here are a couple of action shots of my sister on ice.

She is the one wearing the red pants.

Day 14: Comfort Food

Some days, I have such difficulty going outside.

It's just too COLD!

Mmmmmm...yummy soup...chases the cold away...

Day 13: Traffic

OK...this is the last picture I'll post from last Thursday's snowfall.

This was also taken from the train. Look at how few cars are out at 4:45 on a Thursday evening. Everyone must have avoided this road!

Almost all the other roads had backed up traffic in all directions.

Day 12: Out the Window

Here is another photo from Thursday, the day we were bombarded with snow.

I was stranded downtown Minneapolis, as St Thomas closed early and I missed the last shuttle to St Paul.

I walked to the light rail and took it to my old stop (from before I moved to St Paul), so Jeff wouldn't have to drive all the way to downtown Minneapolis.

It was fun to ride the train again!

This was taken from the window at one of the stops.

Day 11: Frosted Pines

Day 10: Driving in the Snow

We got bombarded with snow today.

This picture was taken after spending a couple hours driving in the snow (to and from school). I feel sorry for anyone who doesn't have a garage!

Tomorrow I may feel differently, as we just might be snowed into our garage. :-)

Day 9: Up in a Tree

I don't know if this depicts winter exactly, but I did take the picture in February, so it counts, right?!

We were surprised to see such a beautiful cardinal on our walk today-

even more surprised I was able to get a picture before it flew away!
